At the American Institute Of Legal Counsel we recognize excellence. Very few Attorneys can display our “10 Best” or “10 Best Under 40” badge on their website or display the plaque in their office. Some States depending on size and population density may be broken up into City or Region to be more applicable to potential new clients who utilize this site when looking for an Attorney. The “10 Best” is for the consumer so that he or she can choose the very best in their field.

Many aspects of the Attorney and his/her career are considered including:

  • Must be formally nominated by the Institute, Client, and/or Peer
  • Must have an impeccable Client Rating rating
  • Must not have faced or been subject to any Attorney Grievance Committee discipline
  • Must be a member in Good Standing of their State Bar
  • Must have excellent Client/Peer Reviews
  • Possess Advanced Degrees
  • Awards received
  • Professional Associations and their activity in such Associations
  • Publications in their field
  • Speaking engagements in their field
